When complete the site would be the biggest wind farm on the continent of Australia, producing enough energy to power more than 765,000 homes. The CFMEU has been negotiating with Danish company BMS since December, however talks have soured as BMS refuses to reach an agreement which would enshrine industry standards. As a result, members of the CFMEU at Golden Plains have been undertaking stoppages each day — initially for 4 hours from the 22nd of May, 6 hours from last week, and potentially eight hour stoppages this week.The Monday Breakfast show was joined by Jake Sutherland, CFMEU delegate to speak about the action. Listeners are encouraged to share posts about the action on social media and attend the picket in Rokewood if able. - Tiny Sparks and Turning Points, a bulletin from our good friends at the Commons Social Change Library, bringing us some radical events over the years that changed this country. This feature is looking at the month of June over our collective history, and will come to listeners on the first Monday of every month, at 8AM. Explore the archive created by Commons Social Change Library here. - Musician Rin McArdle who has been in contact with Saif Al-Shaqawi in Gaza for the past 52 days joins the show to tell us about Saif's experiences in Palestine during Israel's genocidal assault on the country. Saif is one of countless Palestinians who has had their lives irrevocably changed by the Israeli occupation and Rin is involved in fundraising to help Saif and his family do what they can to survive the ongoing brutality. Donate and share the link to the fundraiser so Saif can afford food.
